Petals Challenge

I haven't done the challenge over at Create with Connie and Mary for a long long long time.  This sketch somehow spoke to me, so I thought I should try it.

I've been in the mood to make some sympathy, condolences cards.  Probably because a friend's mother's been ill, and she's been working hard to get her mother taken care of; another good friend's husband's untimely death anniversary is coming up; and my father going out of country to pay respects to yet another fine person passed away entirely too soon.  So, here's the card I made.

I used Paisley Petals DSP, both for the square backgrounds and the flower, which I hand cut and popped up with Dimensionals.  OK, I didn't follow the sketch exactly.  I had to change it, because the sentiment I wanted to use is a bit big for the side, so I turned it.  When I turned the card, I had to turn the orientation of the flower, too.
